Good luck Juli.

Well I have gotten the basics of the board down, however it is too hard to decifer what is new what is not, if you put your preferences to show new replies first then you are reading backwards, the other way you have to remember what page you ended on. I am going to finish out my three swaps then I think I am going to go find something else to do for awhile, the headache is not worth it. I rather have a easy site and I know that this one makes money off it's users due to the advertising and donations, but sheesh.... I hope it works for some, I really do, so I won't be posting any hints, sorry

Another hint for secret pals....

One secret pal says her favorite holiday is Thanksgiving and drinks coffee.

One secret pal says she has a dog and drinks tea. :))

:thumbup::o:D:thumbup:
Okay I am having fun with this and trying to
remember HTML. It's been awhile since I used
it.

I am going to have to go back to the first few posts and see if
I can find my SP. I saw who it was at the time but I guess
I am having one of my senior moments.

Better go find out who my SP is before that becomes
a senior moment also.

arizonagirl 11-02-2011 01:37 PM

greenini just how do you feel about licorice?

thomp116 11-02-2011 01:40 PM

I keep thinking "change is good, change is good........." Eventually we will all have it under control with the new board.

Till then, Lori, if you see this (I am going to send a PM, too), I have mailed my package to my SP.

My SP is downsizing, so no turkey for her! That is hint #1!
Hint #2: zipcode adds up to 21.

Must be senior member means old! Or you post frequently!

This could be for me as I love jewel tone fabrics

Lori Peercy 11-02-2011 02:29 PM

jlin, we all think it has to do with the number of posts we post. The more you post, then you move up to the next level....for you it would be senior member.

mscupid804 11-02-2011 02:39 PM

I'm slowly but surely getting used to things. I had some time on my hands today and just went surfing around this new board and found some things, everyone should try it. There were still some I didn't find so had to post out a question to such. It's gonna take some time still.

If you go to the Settings page, where you see the list of threads you are subscribed to, you will see a little blue spot right next to the envelope on the thread title. If you click on the blue spot it will take you to the first unread post. Hope that helps with at least one problem.

arizonagirl 11-02-2011 03:48 PM

Could someone please tell me how I can post a picture on this thread?

The only thing there that gives any options is quick navigation and there is no option in there browse for image.

mscupid804 11-02-2011 04:14 PM

Lori, this is for you hope you understood me and are able to do it too!

Lauriejo, how did your pic come thru as a pic? Mine came thru as an attachment you have to click on???

The row of icons is below the line where it says quick navigation. It is in the same row that has the font choices. It is in a white box in the grayish header section. It is a small greenish square.

And when I clicked on it, it said something about it being invalid. Also, did your picture look HUGE when you attached it? Mine did, so I just cancelled it. Never had a problem before.

Now Penny we all know crossing the pond usually means coming to England so it has got to be for ME!!!!

Hmmm I don't know lol. Maybe it's the size of the picture that determines it? Mine looked really tiny when I attached it, maybe a quarter of the size it looks on the thread.

I forgot to say that the picture size on the thread is about the actual size.

cannyquilter 11-02-2011 04:41 PM

How international is it? Can we have a little hint as to the country or at least the continent.

Houston we have a problem! I do not have anything below quick navigation, except the box that you type the message in.

Thanks for the explanation - I'll have to take it as a great big compliment - I have grandchildren older than 21.

dyer804 11-02-2011 05:11 PM

Help! I can't seem to get the information for my SP for November. I have tried to access the matrix and all I get is a message saying that the page is not found. I'm sure the rest of you have figured this out. Please help me so I can start shopping for my secret pal. I'm not getting any message notifications either. Oh my, what to do, what to do!

kriscraft99 11-02-2011 05:14 PM

HI Canny :)

mine has a long flight again this month but I can honestly say, this time, that it is not coming to you.

Hugs,
Kris

It has to do with the number of posts, not our ages.

Lori Peercy 11-02-2011 05:23 PM

Please DO NOT contact your sp for address info.This is a secret pal swap. Some people remembered the name of their swap pal but nothing else and sent a pm asking for address. I have all that information so send private message to me please

Juli 11-02-2011 05:53 PM

Thanks everyone! My appointment went pretty well. I was expecting to have some older Doctor walk in the room. No, some young Doctor walks in and sits and goes: I see you are seeing Dr Lockfeld. You have been seeing him longer then I have been a Doctor. I see you are 34 years old. I know that because we were born the same year! LOL!

He told me he wants to gets me off some of my meds. (I am on 5) He goes: I know the signs and I am looking at you and you are looking a little overmedicated. LOL!! He was pretty funny.

I am going to have to go back for further video testing after he talks with my Doctor some more.

I also tried to access the Group Matrix for this swap so I could print out my Secret Pal's info and I can't get that link to work.

That is the box I mean! There should be a row of boxes in the gray border that surrounds the box where you actually type the message.

My first Christmas present finally came in the mail the other day. It's a surprise Christmas present for my Uncle. It's 101 year old newspaper about about Mark Twain. My Uncle use to do stage acting as Mark Twain. The newspaper all I could get was the date of his death, but was able to also buy the date after where they have the entire history and story of his life.
